You might not get accepted, but the upside is that you are not only bringing a ton of laughter to the TLS community, but to our friends, families, etc., when we tell this story to everyone we know. Hilarious.

If I was an adcomm... I would totally see this as a joke. Seeing as they review thousands of app.'s, a little joke might help more than it would hurt.

I've never laughed so hard on an online forum before...
Awesome. I hope you got admitted.

Sort of reminds me of Austin Powers. "Sex? Yes, please."

LOL!!! I honestly don't think this will hurt you though, I bet you they think you were just being humorous and maybe this will also give them something to remember you by. Don’t panic at all.

This is the OP here. A friend of mine just alerted me to this bump. If anyone's still interested, the story is sadly true, and I'm presently slaving away in 1st year courses at Catholic. I just have two questions: should I apply for a transfer to Mason, and is there any way to delete my account on here?
Thanks.

This was the best thing I've read in my life. I have never laughed so hard. I'm home sick right now, so I appreciate the lifting of my mood, with me not being able to breathe through my nose and all right now.
Let us know if you got admitted!!!

Make sure that LSAC does not re-formulate that answer on all your apps! Usually it uses an auto-fill program... that would be pretty sad if every school you applied to recieved the similar mistake! Although it would make for a very funny situation at the annual law school admissions conference...
